05/08/2018 - Jackson Rd Construction Notice

Village of Clinton

Jackson Road Construction Notice

May 8, 2018

The Village is getting ready for the mill and overlay portion of the Jackson Road Construction Project. On May 14, 2018, at 7:00 am all vehicles must be removed from the roadway or they will be towed at the owner’s expense. Please turn off any sprinkler systems.

The contractor is tentatively scheduled to mill Jackson Road on May 14, 2018, starting at 7:00 am, from Michigan Avenue to the north Village limits. That work should take one very long day, weather permitting. The road will be closed to through traffic with flag people directing traffic. Expect delays if driving through that area.

If there are no delays with the milling work or the weather, on May 15, 2018, the contractor will lay asphalt on the street. Jackson Road will be closed to one lane which will cause significant traffic delays for vehicles trying to drive through that area. The contractor will have flag people directing traffic. The side streets will be closed off at Jackson Road during construction. Expect significant delays if trying to drive in that area.

Residents living in that area should park their vehicles on sides streets the night before so that they do not have as long of a delay getting to work or getting children to school. Please take proactive steps to help reduce the likelihood of getting stuck in your driveway for an extended period.

Please note that you may drive on the new asphalt surface after the contractor is finished, however we ask that you DRIVE VERY CAREFULLY without spinning your tires or turning sharply as the new asphalt requires a couple days and some cooler weather to firm up.

Please refer to our website, http://www.villageofclinton.org/government/village-notices/

for updates.

Thank you, in advance for your cooperation.

04/26/2018 - Water Main Valve Repair

The Village of Clinton is currently repairing a water main valve. Those who were known to be in the affected area, received a notice on their door explaining that water would be shut off to make this repair. If you did not receive a notice, and do not have water, they may have encountered an issue that required the shut off area to become larger than anticipated. The staff is working diligently to make the repair to the water main valve, and anticipate the repair to be completed sometime this evening.
